( 22 ) Final Examination of M A 1st Year
The new house situated in the route Pothanicad - Chathamattom. From the busstop, I had to walk through a narrow pathway near a coconut grove and paddyfields. Then, there was a mudroad through which I had to walk about fifteen minutes to reach home.
How many expectations and enthusiasm was there in my mind when I went to the new house ! I had planned to make acquaintances with all neighbouring families. I hoped that our income would be increased because in the seventyfive cents of land, the rubber trees were fully grown and the tapping had started already. But, when I realised that the toilet facility was not there, I returned to hostel, the next day itself. I decided to concentrate in the Final examination of 1st year M A course, though I was totally frustrated. But, the history repeated - how can I describe it ? My mental condition had become worse. Somehow or other, I studied something. After the examination, I was sure that I would fail. "What can I do ? Its my fate ", I would think.

My hostelmates would ask me every Saturday whether I would go home or not. Therefore, I used to go to mother's house, instead of my own home. During the examination period, I went to mother's house only on Second Saturday, I remember.
